No offense but I suggest reading and comprehending a thread before posting some quip. When you do it wrong it just makes you seem, for lack of a better word stupid. More so just don't post the little quip. Up to you really, but I would suggest it highly on a topic such as GT since you seem to be just as zealous for it as those against it.
Seems like you give me no choice as to explain in very tiny details so that "namecalling people" like yourself would have even a fraction of a chance to understand.
The OP asks:
Im an old industrial craft player and i liked the old solar panel crafting recipes but because of greg tech, they are really expensive, i have a server and i want to change it back to the industrial craft recipe or revert any recipes that greg tech modified back the their original recipe.
Then you reply:
In the config file there is a header named "useful recipes"; change everything after that header to false.
Seeing as the OP thinks this is all due to Gregtech changing the recipes (Hands down, yes, the basic solar panel is changed by Gregtech)
You assume the same and give him the suggestion to change the config and thereby solve the problem.
The OP do as you suggested and reply:
I just tried it and it doesn't work, even if i remove the zip in the mod folder. any other suggestions?
Based on this comment by the OP, he did NOT mean the basic solar panel. His problem is still the same.
You need to make the change in the server's GregTech config file, AND in the config file of every client connecting to said server.
Adjusting the server makes sure the cheap recipe works; adjusting the clients makes sure the clients' NEI and other crafting support tools don't get confused and show it wrong.
This player assumes the OP is playing SMP and gives a hint as to why it doesn't work.
Also note that the advanced, hybrid, and ultimate hybrid are from the advanced solar panel mod. Which has its own config file with a option to change the recipes from hard to easy mode.
Finally someone who made his homework and actually knows why and how the recipes are changed.
This leads to this:
Now I suggest YOU go back and read it all again and YOU go read up on what Advanced Solar Panels are all about.
It's OK to try and help out, unfortunately this time your suggestion did not work. Please don't blame anyone else.
